Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway has a clean bill of health within his squad as he looks to take advantage of Fulham’s rocky early form as they visit Selhurst Park.

Forward Yannick Bolasie is pushing for his first league start this season, having already come off the bench for the club before the international break a fortnight ago.

Fulham are likely to welcome midfielder Scott Parker back into the fold after he recovered from a calf injury and he could be joined by Adel Taarabt, who is fit again following the international break.

Defender Aaron Hughes has returned to full training following a thigh injury, though he may still face a late fitness test before kick off.

This is only the third top-flight fixture between the two clubs. Palace won 2-0 at home in the Premier League in October 2004 before losing 3-1 at Fulham on New Year’s Day 2005.
